la Happy in Print – Kate Spade Inspired Shoot

©lahappy_seattlebride_1

I was recently able to collaborate with my friends Sinclair & Moore Events on a lovely Kate Spade inspired shoot for Seattle Bride Magazine. The shoot featured bright colors, preppy stripes and gold details. I worked on some z-fold gold foil stamped menus for the shoot and some lovely gold calligraphy place cards. Steve Moore from Sinclair & Moore did such a lovely job styling this shoot! I love the adorable black and white striped favor boxes at each place setting with bright green silk ribbons. …also, can we talk about the sparkly gold sequin tablecloths? Yes, they were as amazing in person!

The menus are entirely gold foil stamped. Gold foil stamping is such a lovely way to print your day-of-stationery and even your invitations! It is the best way to achieve that fabulous sparkly metallic gold look. These gold foil menus were printed on hot pink cardstock. The great thing about gold foil is that it can be printed on so many fun paper colors, surfaces and textures. Plus, who doesn’t love a little gold?!

I recently worked on some calligraphy pieces for a lovely collaboration with Crystal of Bespoke Style Studios. The theme for the editorial was wedding desserts through the four seasons. The editorial is featured in the newest edition of Seattle Met Bride & Groom.

Crystal was the brains behind the styling and prop design, I was able to lend a hand with the paper/calligraphy pieces. It was so fun working with Crystal (who I met while working on her wedding invitations) and seeing our ideas come to life in print. I especially love the sweet details she included, like the cut-out leaves behind the desserts for Autumn! I am so pleased with the shoot, it’s always so fun to see my work in action and just looking at all these desserts makes me hungry! Be sure to check out more of Crystal’s work here!

Also, how beautiful is that cover shot? The image is part of a larger shoot that is featured inside the magazine. The shoot was styled by Steven Moore Designs and photographed by Elizabeth Messina, so lovely, it’s a must see!
